    "Those people" who? Homebuilders? You're saying you think the cost of homebuilding should be much higher? When I listen to some of you guys it's not hard for me to see why these DC…

    I love how the original post says this happens across vastly different societies regardless of all these different variables people are offering as possible explanations. For examp…

    This also sounds like rich people problems. Vast majority of people with a W-2 take the standard deduction.

    The upper decile of income earners account for more than half of all consumption in the US. Household balance sheets and wealth have never looked stronger, again when you account f…

    Maybe for some subset of sotware (like CRM panels or something) PMs will do everything. But if you're projecting the way one sort of software (ie user-facing, business use oriented…

    It sounds like they will still need to hire and train human talent who can understand the code, and evaluate and integrate outputs of AI systems that conform to the specific compli…

    I think a big part of the reason AI is so divisive and only declining in popularity, is because much of the discourse is shaped by mid to senior career SWEs who fantasize about put…

    Right now, we accept false positives as long as you can sort them out. I think it's pretty typical that >99% of fuzzer runs don't result in new coverage. Of course they're far from…

    In a large codebase there will still be bugs in how these components interoperate with each other, bugs involving complex chaining of api logic or a temporal element. These are the…

    I think there is already papers and presentations on integrating these kind of iterative code understanding/verificaiton loops in harnesses. There may be some advantages over fuzzi…

    I could see that being an incremental time save (perhaps not worth the token spend except for the dev team, not a high-value bug). But nbody finds this kind of bug "by hand" and ha…

    Analysis of what? What does that mean? What's something you conceivably would need a consulting firm to "analyze?" I don't understand why management consulting firms would hire sof…

    Well it's an operating system. Ideally safety and reliability are prioritized. I think the scope and complexity of an operating system are large enough both to make a lot of change…

    It's an operating system, not a website.

    The law defines an operating system provider as "a person or entity that develops, licenses, or controls the operating system software on a computer, mobile device, or any other ge…

    Well the problem is, there is no consensus standard. The onus is on every individual vendor to figure out how to comply. And it's so poorly written that there is no clear path to c…

    It's not privacy-respecting at all to create some side channel between your browser and OS to transmit some information about a "user profile." If this were about browser vendors i…

    I'm not sure it's worth entertaining these hypotheticals. Just another absurd CA law that's impossible to comply with. "When you set up your account and it asks for your birthdate.…

    All the docs are already in its training data, wouldn't that just pollute the context? I think giving a model better/non-free tooling would help as mentioned. binja code mode can b…

    Sure. They're making a strong claim, but I think they mean "author of the Fascist Manifesto" as shorthand to say Marinetti was an ardent supporter of fascism and Mussolini. His sup…
